Well.....
all have their good points. But if you really want to learn programing and not just feeding statements to a compiler..... Assembly is the only way to go. It is a bit harder to learn than other lanuages, but unlimited in it's power. |

Hmm, starting with Assembly isn't a good idea, it will be extremely difficult for someone who hasn't programmed before, I suggest Java, the best to start with IMHO.

I also think Java is a good language to start with. It is completely object oriented and it will force you to learn good programming techniques.
Assembly is powerful, but it is very hard to learn. For somebody who is unfamiliar with exactly how computer software works, sticking with something like Java or another high-level language is preferable. |

Java is good because it can be used to create web-based applications and therefore is a low memory programming language.

If you really want to write apps for a PC, go with C++ and learn every nuance. Assembly is nice to know, but aside from using it for very specific sections of code that are highly optimized, like using MMX/3DNow/etc. instructions to do a task faster, it isn't really widely used. Certainly nobody writes entire windows programs in assembly.

I will vote for C++, it has a lot of power and flexibility in it, but isn't nearly so complex as assembly would be.
